Today, Governor Pete Ricketts, the Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) Director John Selmer, and other state and local partners gathered to celebrate the opening of the Lincoln South Beltway.
The 11-mile project connects U.S. Highway 77, and Nebraska Highway 2. The beltway was created to help reduce congestion on Highway 2 through lincoln and improve regional mobility.
NDOT has been working towards the delivery of the Lincoln South Beltway since initial discussions began in the 1960s. It is the largest, and one of the most complex projects NDOT has undertaken in state history.
